Joey Pasco
Joey Pasco has hosted 147 episodes.
Magic: The Gathering player, podcaster, & broadcaster | Former event commentator for the SCGTour | Photographer
Joey Pasco has been playing MTG since January 1995, and discovered his passion for blue-based control in the early 2000s (special thanks to Vedalken Shackles). After launching Yo! MTG Taps! with bhj in 2009, he spent 3 years having a blast doing commentary for the StarCityGames.com Open Series on what's now known as the SCGTour. In 2012, YMTGT went on hiatus, so Joey joined the In Contention podcast as a host alongside Matt Kranstuber and Reuben Bresler after Sam Stoddard left the show to work for Wizards of the Coast.
In October 2019, Joey launched DrawGo Designs, a line of apparel directed at fellow MTG players. (Hint: You can get YMTGT apparel here too!)
Joey's favorite format is Modern, where Azorius Control and Jeskai Control are his longtime weapons of choice.
Joey lives in Baltimore with his wife, Christina, and their daughter, Aurelia.

bigheadjoe has hosted 235 episodes.
Cro-host of Yo! MTG Taps! #jazz he/him/his #mtg #cycling #rasslin #comics #archaeology #cats #random #horror bigheadjoe#64493 on #mtgarena Master of Pruppets
bhj starting playing Magic along with Joey in 1995, and spent years playing Yavimaya Ants in an unsleeved Mono-Green deck that he updated whenever he saw fit.
And then in 2002, he saw Wheel and Deal. A romance was born, and bhj has tried to make the mill deck work whenever the opportunity presents itself. Since those days, he has tended towards aggro strategies in Standard, but his true love is Sealed Deck. He refuses to play Modern, but Joey will be doing his best to change that.

Stephen Marshall
Stephen Marshall has hosted 88 episodes.
Co-host of YMTGT from 2014-2016.
Stephen Marshall began using Magic cards to play games that bore no semblance to the official rules of Magic: The Gathering sometime in 1994. He then took a brief (two-decade) break from the game after Ice Age was released and Magic was ruined forever. Stephen is a deck hipster, preferring to play rogue strategies whenever Burn is not viable. If there is a new deck putting up results, he was probably playing it before it was cool, and before it was good. He can be found on MTGO under the username moonpi and is available 24/7 for playtesting or vicious trolling.
